Conservative groups have tried to capitalize on this through "astroturfing", which is using paid commenters to try to affect perceptions of the news. Right now the two largest employers of conservative astroturfing trolls are the Koch funded think tank FreedomWorks, and conservative activist and Breitbart news publisher Steve Bannon.
Along with this rise in astroturfing has come the rise of the "Aggressive Democratic Commenter", who are private individuals with an interest in politics who have taken it upon themselves to skewer and satirize the astroturfers. ADCs have no Republican equivalent, and if you look at most news stories you'll see the conservative comments appear childish and inane, while the comments from liberals are factually accurate, and often contain a biting wit that appeals strongly to readers. There is no Republican equivalent to the ADC, as Republicans are generally less intell... less

Also I known immigrants who know English perfectly!
She was born & raised in bogota Colombia! Well she speaks English but a very noticeable accent. How can she improve her accent? To sound more American!

NY 24th District: John Katko (R) versus Colleen Deacon (D): Katko's a moderate Republican and really a great guy, but he's not exciting, not very well spoken, and likely to be a victim of poor down-ballot showing if Trump is the GOP nominee. Deacon is the former senior aid to New York State Senator Kirsten Gillibrand and will have the benefit of ties to the Gillibrand campaign machine.
NY 22nd District: Longtime GOP rep Richard Hanna (R) is retiring. Hanna has always been a moderate pro-life Republican and this district is politically moderate. The Republican nominee is Claudia Tenney (R) a right-wing Tea Party whack-job who has a tendency to get irate and make herself look ridiculous by spouting anti-Obama conspiracy theories and FOX News talking points. She's facing Kim Myers (D) who has a substantial campaign war-chest due to the fact that her family owns the Dick's Sporting Go... less

But do you think she could be treated differently than someone born in the USA? Like I want her to be treated the same as someone born in the USA.

Correct answer:
Bill Clinton The 42nd President played about 400 rounds during his eight years in office. He told Golf Magazine he had lowered his handicap to 10 after leaving office. That was short-lived though, as travel commitments mean the former president has not had has much time to devote to his game. He's still active in the game as his Clinton Foundation hosts the Humana Challenge PGA Tour event in California in January. less
